FORUM
"The Three Seas is a region of growth as our economies are growing faster than in the rest of Europe, and for this reason we aim to foster further development in the three key areas of the Initiative. High on 3SI Summit agenda was Ukraine’s involvement in the Initiative. The 3SI participating states unanimously supported Ukraine's struggle for sovereignty and freedom. With this 3SI Summit and Business Forum, we are starting close cooperation with Ukraine within the framework of the Three Seas Initiative. Looking forward to 3SI Summit and Business Forum in Romania next year!"
